Quote from: Eric K on April 17, 2024, 05:44:48We need a President that has a grip on reality and these two same fools have no clue what they are doing.
(You seem to refer to Biden and Trump.)
The US people will elect either of them instead of some third candidate because the US election system is too favourable for the big parties. Why do these two parties choose such candidates with limited competence and high age? In the Republicans, the biggest market crier wins and is chosen for this very reason. In the Democrats, they lack courage to nominate young candidates with less charisma than JFK or Obama out of fear that then the market crier beats them. Still I wonder how these two big companies could have let things evolve to this state. It is the result of decades of deteriorating political culture.
The USA is not the first country with similar problems. There have been Russia, Italy, Hungary, Poland and others. Simplistic candidates in a world that is becoming too complex for too many.
